My excitement was high for Captain America: Brave New World. I was still skeptical about the extensive reshoots and the MCU's track record post-Endgame, but I really liked The Falcon and the Winter Soldier, the trailers looked awesome and I've always loved the Captain America side of…

Best Character: Bridget Jones
Best Performance: Renée Zellweger
Best Aspect: Emotions
Bridget Jones: Mad About the Boy is great. This is a franchise that has spanned across 24 years, and it absolutely ends on a high note. It's a fantastic start to 2025 for films, and the best of the series.
Renée Zellweger's Bridget Jones is easily at her strongest. She remains charmingly awkward, but it's tragic…

Once Heat gets going, it has you locked in. Michael Mann is a director that has impressed me yet again; his shot selection is memorable, and the overall atmosphere of the film captures a vibe that's both restless and relaxing. Moreover, the bank heist everything prior had been building towards is awesome. When the characters rob the money it…

While Puss in Boots…

I'm so glad that I rewatched Dune: Part 2. It's not my favourite of the year, let alone the decade — I like my sci-fi best when it's a little bit more fun — but I can't deny the sheer epicness on display. Hans Zimmer's score is so incredibly weird, yet so incredibly awesome, Denis Villeneuve delivers all the…
